CALL TO ARMS - They are school kids temporarily sacrificing their education in order to save our futures from dangerous climate change.

 

On November 30, over 15,000 boys and girls went on strike from school in every capital city and over 20 regional centres across Australia

 

On March 15, they are going even bigger and inviting adults to join them in solidarity for a Global Climate Strike! We ask, should that not include every country in the world?

 

 

A solid education is a positive advantage and essential if you are thinking of specialising in medicine, engineering, research, etc.  The future of mankind depends on the quality of our scientists and other specialists by way of our collective or community brain.  Fortunately, Schools, Colleges and Universities in the United States of America, the United Kingdom and Australia offer a wide range of courses to help you develop your future potential. The following is a list of educational organisations that may help you achieve your goals in life.

SCHOOL LISTS and GUIDES

 

This Site!: a complete list of UK schools. Mapping and location search facilities (in association with Multimap.com). Searches by name, age groups, religion and a large range of other features. Tabulations of all available examination data for the past four years. Full contact details. Links to Ofsted and others. Much more to come over the next year.

 

Independent Schools Council information service (ISCis): the site formerly known as ISIS - the Independent Schools Information Service - now trendily renamed and slipping into lower case. The 'official' site for schools belonging to the Independent Schools Joint Council, about 1,300 of the 2,000 plus independent schools in the UK. ISJC members would regard themselves as being the best 1,300. An excellent and very helpful site. Good search facility. Inspection reports are now beginning to be available on the Independent Schools Inspectorate site.

 

SchoolsNet: A Greg Hadfield/Sunday Times production, based on The Good State Schools Guide (which Greg Hadfield wrote) and The Equitable Schools Guide. Now much expanded with the aim of being 'the number one education website' - moving on a broad front.

 

Tigerchild: a site full of information on raising children, including some good schools lists links.

 

 

OTHERS

 

Guide to private schools - US-based, but lots of international content and a good reviewer. Well worth a browse.

 

American Boarding School Review: a new site with reviews from alumni - independent of the schools,and well worth a browse.

Association of International Study Centres: for those half dozen famous independent schools that have specialcentres for bringing overseas students up to speed for mainstream UK education.

 

Beacon Schools: state schools chosen by the DfES for excellence in teaching or other aspects of their work, and willing and able to help your school overcome its problems. You can search for Beacon schools on features search above.

Montessori: no consolidated list of UK Montessori schools exists, as far as we can see.

Schools Search: Based on the Catt/Which School volumes, i.e. the entry depends on what the school pays, so (when we last looked) there was a long screed on Moreton Hall, a couple of paragraphs on Harrow and nothing at all on Eton. Apart from that, it's a nice site. 'Covers' 2,600 independent schools.
